Not that I've tried this workaround in context of PETSc, but
one could create two shared objects/DLLs, one compiled for
complex and the other one for double and use them together
in a single executable using the standard dynamic linking
functions like dlopen/LoadLibrary.

As to how it will be affected by MPI, I am not so sure.
